I had a weekend of debauchery. That’s really the nicest way to put it honestly. I went to one of those adult summer camps that were advertised everywhere and went viral online – which is pretty much a weekend of boozing in the sun and late night costume parties. Epic fun? Hell yes. Is my body pissed? Hell fucking yes.
The shot above is after our epic color wars victory – I can be spotted 4th row from the bottom in the backwards hat with my tongue out… #noregrets.
I came back literally craving anything green – lettuce, kale, grapes, just give me real food! Their vegan options were extremely limited so I spent a weekend pretty much surviving on french fries and beer… and when I came home I could think of one word and one word only – detox.
The process was pretty easy – the recovery, not so much.
